Lady Gaga Matches Miley Cyrus In A Historic Showing
Share this @internewscast.com

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars are still on top of the world. The duo’s hit “Die with a Smile” reclaims its spot as the biggest song on the planet this week, once again leading both of Billboard’s worldwide tallies. That includes the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., with the difference between them being that the latter strips out all American listening data to show what the rest of the world is playing on repeat. In both cases, “Die with a Smile” is out front, giving Gaga and Mars another historic win to add to their already-impressive tenures as superstars.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars Match Harry Styles and Miley Cyrus

On the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., “Die with a Smile” leads for a thirteenth frame. That’s a lucky number this time around, as it pushes the track into rarefied territory.

With this latest stint on top, Gaga and Mars tie two of the most successful songs in the chart’s short but competitive lifespan. “Die with a Smile” is now even with Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers” and Harry Styles’ “As It Was,” as all three cuts have ruled the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. for exactly 13 weeks. That trio now shares the bronze medal as the third-longest-running No. 1s in the ranking’s history.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars Could Soon Tie Mariah Carey’s Record

If “Die with a Smile” can manage to hold on for just one more frame — which, at this point, seems highly likely — Gaga and Mars will break the tie they just formed and move up the all-time ranking. One more week at No. 1 would bring them to an even 14 periods, enough to match the runner-up record, which is currently held by Mariah Carey’s holiday smash “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” That annual favorite will almost certainly return to the top spot again this December.

Bruno Mars Still Holds the All-Time Record

While “Die with a Smile” is making history, it still has a long way to go before it catches up to the all-time champion. The current record-holder for the most weeks spent at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. is another track featuring Mars: “Apt.,” his collaboration with Rosé. That release enjoyed an incredible 19-frame reign atop the tally, and it’s still comfortable in the runner-up rung this time around.

“Die with a Smile” could theoretically match that number, but it would need to continue ruling for more than a month to get there. That’s a tall order, especially for a tune that’s already logged 13 frames in charge – though it’s certainly not impossible.
